Two thirds minus one fourth is equal to five twelfths.
7 twelfths. Solution: 1. 9 twelfths - 2 twelfths = 7 twelfths 2. 9/12 - 2/12 = 7/12 ============ 7/12. 9 of something minus 2 of the same thing equals 7 of that thing. It makes no difference whether the thing, for example, is apples or pounds/dollars or "twelfths" etc.
1/4 - 1/2= (1 - 2)/4= -1/4

3 and 2/3
Two thirds minus one fourth is equal to five twelfths.
1/4 = 3/12 11/12 - 3/12 = 8/12 = 2/3
Eleven twelfths.
7 twelfths. Solution: 1. 9 twelfths - 2 twelfths = 7 twelfths 2. 9/12 - 2/12 = 7/12 ============ 7/12. 9 of something minus 2 of the same thing equals 7 of that thing. It makes no difference whether the thing, for example, is apples or pounds/dollars or "twelfths" etc.
Expressed as a proper fraction in its simplest form, 2/3 - 1/4 = 5/12 or five twelfths. Expressed as a decimal, this is equal to 0.416 recurring (that is, 0.416666...)
five twelfths 1/6 = 2/12 7/12 - 2/12 = 5/12
what is 1 and 1 fourth minus 3 eighth
4 1/4
Eleven (not elevin) twelfths (not twelves) minus (not minise) one fourth is 11/12 - 1/4 = 11/12 - 3/4 = 8/12 which simplifies to 2/3.
8 2/3 - 9 1/4 = -7/12 or negative seven twelfths. Expressed as a decimal, this is equal to -0.583 recurring (that is, -0.583333...)
1/4 - 1/2= (1 - 2)/4= -1/4
